Mets beat the O's 5-0...another shutout. 2nd place all by ourselves and we finally gained a game on the Nats.

Nice win for the good guys!

I may be a little late, but was anyone sad to see Bay bang his head? I feel bad for him, but glad he's not in the lineup anymore
Dave128 03:11 PM 06-20-2012
I'm pretty disappointed. Bay plays his heart out. He gets a bad rap as a Met because he's been on the DL so much.

I always loved Bob Uecker's line:
It's easy to catch a knuckleball . . . you just wait 'til it stops rolling, then pick it up.
That was a close one. Mets win 4-3 after Gee had a 1 hitter through most of the game.

Sweeeeeeep!!

Mets tried to give it away in the bottom of the ninth.

Let's see, Mets get :
Swept by the Yanks
Sweep the Rays
Swept by the Reds
Sweep the O's
And now they have 3 coming up against the Yanks again.
Anyone else see a pattern here?
:-)

I'm looking forward to Sunday nights pitching matchup...Dicky vs Sabathia.

Yep....

Just FYI, here about 35 miles upweather of Citi Field, the sky's a nasty stormy green, with lightning heading from Pennsyltucky-way. Don't be shocked at a rain-delay, since a shock's not nearly as bad as a lighning strike up aside the head.
The Poet 04:48 PM 06-22-2012
Now, not 10 minutes later, it's rainin' like a summabich, a real frog-strangler.
kelmac07 07:37 PM 06-22-2012
My kind of 1st inning.
:-)

kelmac07 07:29 AM 06-23-2012
Won't be a sweep in this series..at least not by the Evil Empire. Mets beat the Yankees last night 6-4. Cluck you!!
:-) :-)
kelmac07 09:33 PM 06-23-2012
Mets piss away a 3-0 lead and lose to the Yankees tonight 4-3.
:-) :-)
Dave128 10:14 PM 06-23-2012
Like you said, Mac, no sweep. Looking forward to tomorrow's pitching match up.
kelmac07 06:19 AM 06-25-2012
Mets drop last nights game, and the series, to the Yankees 6-5. I'm proud of the way they fought back after being down 5-1 though. Damn bullpen blows another one. Why in the hell would Collins leave Batista in for two innings???
:-) :-)

I didn't get it either!
If you get a scoreless inning out of Batista in a tie game, you can't tempt fate, you have to get him out of there.
I know the pen was in disarray with Francisco out, but doesn't Collins remember The last time he faced Cano?
I'm not sure that ball from Friday has landed yet!
:-)
Dave128 09:05 AM 06-25-2012
At least it wasn't a sweep......
kelmac07 10:01 AM 06-25-2012
We pissed away a lead in game one...tried to give game two away and had a chance in game three.
